DJ Rap drops ‘Gone To The After Party’ EP 1 on Propa Talent

Let’s dive right into the world of a true musical visionary – DJ Rap! Forget the usual clichéd introductions; her legacy speaks for itself. For nearly three decades, her label imprint, Propa Talent, has been a consistent force in the music industry, poised to celebrate its 200th release – a remarkable milestone for any record label, especially one specializing in the dynamic genre of Drum & Bass. As we ascend to this pivotal moment, Propa Talent has meticulously curated a selection of finely crafted tracks that promise to keep you grooving from the main event to the afterparty and beyond. Enter the debut of the ‘Gone To The After Party’ EP series, starting with Part 1, featuring three mesmerizing self-produced tracks by DJ Rap.

Launching our afterparty journey, ‘It Ain’t Right’ kicks off with an awe-inspiring yet elegantly simple chord sequence. It wastes no time introducing captivating female vocals before the bassline takes over and propels us into the heart of the party. We traverse the realms of jungle and bass, where reggae-style vocals seamlessly blend with the pulsating percussion loops, leading us once more to those grandiose chords before the climactic break and final drop. The afterparty has officially begun.

‘Every Time I Hear Music’ is up next. They say you never forget an amen break, and DJ Rap reaffirms this belief with an electrifying intro that combines elements of rudeness and electro vibes. It’s a sonic journey that leaves you yearning for more, chanting “ANTHEM” as ‘Every Time I Hear Music’ echoes through the track. Accompanied by a relentless lead and bassline, this song etches itself deep into your memory, making you want to hit repeat and relive it again and again.

‘Control’ closes out the EP, Amen to Amens because this track is teeming with them. It takes a more tech-influenced route, featuring twisted, full-on synths and time-stretched, gated vocals that are a stark departure from the opener but equally as electrifying. Whether you’re at an afterparty or in the midst of a midnight set, this track is destined to be a dancefloor destroyer.

DJ Rap’s ‘Gone To The After Party’ EP Part 1 is an enthralling journey that defies clichés, delivering a fresh and invigorating musical experience that demands attention and repeated listens.
